Wholesale Body Jewelry

Body jewelry - pieces of jewelry worn in all kinds of “non-traditional” parts of the body - is growing in popularity, but not many jewelry artists cater to this market. Happily for the jewelry industry, body jewelry customers tend to buy a lot of pieces of this kind of jewelry! And fortunately for jewelry artists, we can purchase plain styles of wholesale body jewelry at good prices and embellish them for a good profit.

Regardless of how traditional your personal jewelry style is, it's fun to let your imagination run wild and experiment with what you can do to decorate some pieces of wholesale body jewelry.

Although you can easily make your own toe-rings and ear cuffs, most jewelry that’s worn in piercings should be surgical quality. Piercings in parts of the body other than earlobes have a much higher likelihood of becoming infected, so I recommend that you purchase commercially made wholesale body jewelry and add your own touches to it.

You can easily embellish wholesale body jewelry in styles that match the rest of your jewelry line, and you may want to consider offering matching pieces—earrings, toe rings, anklets, bracelets, etc. to go with your body jewelry.

Also think about current jewelry trends in general, and apply those trends to your body jewelry line. Beads at the end of dangling chains, chain maille, chandeliers, colored pearls, etc. are current jewelry trends that could easily be added to wholesale body jewelry with wonderful designer results!

Display your decorated line of wholesale body jewelry prominently at your booth, with neatly made signs stating what the pieces are (some traditional jewelry customers will wonder how these pieces are supposed to be worn)! Spring and summer are excellent times to sell a lot of this line.
